The Cover 3 crew talks power ratings, returning production, College Football Playoff format and more. First, with the news of the week being the CFP's move to a 5+7 model, breaking down the implications on the 2024 season and what to expect in terms of any further changes for 2026 and beyond. Then it's on to a deep dive into SP+ ratings with ESPN's Bill Connelly, discussing the impact of transfers on a team's rating and identifying some teams that have made big jumps since the end of last season. Florida State, LSU, Ole Miss and more get spotlighted, as well as a look at the top-rated teams from the Group of Five that will be competing for the automatic qualifier to the new 12-team playoff.
